Not even Brad Bell could be that stupid!! Or could he?

Brooke has already been severely damaged as a character by these kind of stories, but to do it again would ruin her beyond repair. Not even KKL could save her after that, and I don't see how she could possibly remain on the canvas after that.  The only way that would work is if it's really Sheila in a Brooke-mask, but that would ruin the show in another way and place it in DOOL-territory.

Excuse me... no way she can remain? Have you seen all of 1998 to 2015... Brooke has done the sex scandal soooo many times. This will be nothing. Thank God she is not of age to get pregnant or Brad will do that too. I mean... it has been waaay too long for Brooke without sex scandal. As cheap as it is .... it's so funny.

Yes, I have seen all of that. And yes, Brooke has done stuff like this before, which is exactly why putting her through it again, and in a way that would be even worse than before, would be the final straw for her as a character. Maybe you think I'm being overly dramatic, but think about it. If this would happen, where do you see Brooke after that? What would be left for her? She would have nothing and no one left. What could you possibly do with her character then? It would be writing her into a corner from which there is no escape.

 The time to evolve brooke was 20 Years ago and that train never left the station because of extremely bad writing. Brad will do anything for cheap scandal and over the top drama. After brooke slept with Bill and got pregnant in 2013 .... anything... anything is possible. Brooke and Liam is something very expectable for Bold. It could drive 2, 3 years of disgusting story. I would watch because... it's been so boring for so long. I mean.... I guess I prefer a sex scandal  over Copy paste storyline from 1991! Brooke Ridge and Taylor triangle is so worn out... it's like a public toilet doorknob. It's shocking and absurd for women that age to act like that over this old playboy that they both should have forgotten by now. Brad is copy pasting 30 year old storyline and it's laughable.

Well...if anyone can play a temptress to rival KKL it's KA. Cuz her not backing down as Taylor to make a play for Ridge...was kinda fierce.

 

SMH. Sheila, what was you thinking? Stalking Finn and Steffy. Deacon definitely will have his hands full.

 

I'm not sure how to feel about this upcoming custody case.

Exactly. And, Brooke running FC! I still don't get giving FC back after the brilliantly set-up Belief storyline. That was so well planned. Brooke evolving into Stephanie would actually be a great long-term story.

B&B also should undo the Marone blood line. Blame it on Sheila (of course). Didn't all Nick's kids end up dying or being someone else's? So the only 'tie' is to Ridge, who doesn't need a half-brother. If it was only Ridge, it wouldn't be so bad, but Steffy, Thomas and their kids have no blood ties to Eric. It was a bad story and truly went against who Stephanie was.

I mean they already had planned for Brooke to be Stephanie’s successor all the way back when she was against Rick/Amber. There’s just no way she’d let a child like Steffy treat her and her family like that…

I do wish the Marone stuff would be brought up from time to time because I’m tired of the hypocrisy of  Ridge, Taylor Thomas and  Steffy, but if they never done that (which they shouldn’t have in all honesty) I probably wouldn’t be as annoyed, with this whole Forrester vs Logan BS. It just seems like Bradley does write the “pure blood” Forresters as more of the “good guys” (which honestly isn’t fair to really say because besides Eric, we don’t see Thorne,Felicia, Kristen) and not really as anti-Logan and the bad/shadier “Forresters” have always seemed to be Ridge and Tridge kids. (Sans Phoebe) who have inherited Stephanie’s longtime hatred of Brooke and her family (except Ridge of course). Something that Massimo shared too.

      I'm wondering if there were bits cut from this footage, because to me it seems that may be the case. At 11:23, Laurie tells her psychiatrist that the bar phoned saying that Mark got in a fight and needs to be picked up. It starts to fade to the next scene, you hear some different music begin and get cut off between the static-y cuts, and where you'd expect to see the aftermath of the fight, we cut back to a later scene of Laurie in bed worrying about what's happening. The credits at the end also show that more than Mark, Laurie and Dr. Northcote should have been in this episode. Another character, Brody, played by Ed Setrakian, is mentioned but not shown. Perhaps the original fan who saved this episode has the additional scenes.
    • Anyway… It’s a shame that the video that depicted Leticia’s death was removed from YT.

    • Ms. Phelps holds a BFA in directing from Carnegie Mellon University, awarded in 1972. At a time when women were underrepresented in directing programs, she was one of the few women in her graduating class. To suggest that she possessed no further talents than completely changing the style of music used on soaps seems like a vast underestimate when one reads her online biography through an objective lens. I guess that I should be more clever than to constantly blame misogyny for these misguided interpretations of her management style.  But, I'll never comprehend why fans unquestionably align their opinions even years after fact. Post-modernism, and the ability to reinterpret context through the study of history, seems to elude this conversation.

    • This is 100% correct.  It was even on the nightly news where the US Government would not let the cast and crew travel to Egypt because it was deemed not safe.  The Achille Lauro hijacking took place on October 7, 1985, when the Italian ocean liner MS Achille Lauro was hijacked by four men representing the Palestine Liberation Front off the coast of Egypt, as she was sailing from Alexandria to Ashdod, Israel. The location shoot was probably scheduled to be filmed in mid-October to air throughout November with a two week tape to air date.  Remember on the show they did some in studio scenes doubling for Egypt before shifting the action to Arizona.  It was an awkward end to a truly bizarre storyline.

      New episode from late 1973 or early 1974!
    • Coronation Street had a very good story where one of the characters befriended a man who she later learned had been involved in her husband's death - when told right it can be very powerful (not like AMC trying to make it a romance). ATWT almost had a big fire in mid-1994, so this seemed to be a "thing" with P&G at the time. I guess it fits the disaster backstage atmosphere.
    •   @jmgaw did not refer to Luke and Laura. Throughout 78 GH's ratings continued to rise as AW's fell. That turnaround was getting a lot of attention in the soap press with Scotty/Laura, Rick/Leslie/Monica etc . So the 90 min decision was a reaction to that. I guess the thinking was that 60 min expansion had worked so starting AW a half hour before might keep viewers from switching to GH at 3pm. I don't think anybody really thought it would work. The most sensible solution would have been to expand The Doctors and hope for a GH like turnaround, but for reasons unknown TD never went to an hour.    
    • Like I said competing organization But this is not what I want to happen.
